Busting the Diabetes Myth provides an effective and evidence-based approach to guide people with type 2 diabetes and prediabetes towards a healthier future. Focusing on the lifestyle changes that help reverse the diabetes disease process, the book will be an invaluable source of hope and inspiration for the millions of people with type 2 diabetes and prediabetes around the world.

Drawing upon Dr Cavan's extensive research into diabetes management and his professional experience, Busting the Diabetes Myth reveals the latest scientific evidence behind his innovative approach in helping people reverse their diabetes, providing specific advice for people with prediabetes as well as those with type 2 diabetes. Explaining in easy to understand terms how today's lifestyles are driving millions of people into prediabetes and then on to developing type 2 diabetes, the author then describes the changes we can make to halt the process in its tracks and help people turn around their health to look forward to a future free from diabetes.

Advocating a diet based on healthy fresh foods that avoids sugars, refined carbohydrates, and other highly processed foods, and with simple suggestions for how to incorporate physical activity into the daily routine, this accessible guide shows us sustainable and achievable ways of adjusting our lifestyles to reverse prediabetes and type 2 diabetes. The book is authenticated with firsthand testimonies from people who, in following Dr Cavan's evidence-based approach, have already done just that.
